- I was literally speechless - AGAIN!. This was such an amazing ride!
The Greatest Show on Earth is out of this world as are all of the performances.
Floor Jansen and Marco Hietala are stunning in this incredible masterpiece!
They have total control over their voices and have mastered the belt/mix!
I LOVED THIS!!

Thanks so much and all good things to you!
Mike
"...And by the way, he's also playing bass guitar at the same time. No opera singer does that." Love it, well said
Dimash: "Wait what, hold my beer."
Just to be real for a sec, there's a huge difference between singing and comping a pop and doing opera.
I know, right? Thanks!
Yeah. I sing and play a good few instruments, and there's none I find harder to play and sing along than bass guitar. Might be me, but I have mad respect for bassists who do vocals.
@@MikeGoodrich BTW Mike, Marco Hietala is the lead singer of the band Terot and also has a couple solo albums. If you want to hear more of him, I recommend checking out "truth will set you free" from his solo album "Pyre of the Black Heart" released this year.
Does anybody else feel like a proud parent when you see a reactor praising Nightwish and so excited when they hear their songs? 😉 Such a great song! Another great Nightwish reaction/breakdown, Mike!
me
The emoticons are dripping of his face, gets me kinda emotional too.
Especially when the people praising are professionals 😊
That's the reason for what I´m addicted to reaction videos :3
and angry when most reactors have nothing to say or even miss on the important stuff... not this one so you sir get a thumbs up
You: How do you orchestrate fireworks?
Nightwish: Yes
Well... they've made classical works that use cannons... yes CANNONS as an instrument and there's a separate staff for them in the score.... so why not fireworks :D
Haha! Yes, they pulled it off!
@@MikeGoodrich lighting tech guess: the backing track during that segment is pre-recorded im betting they attached time code to that and walked back from the beat however long the fuze was set to to trigger
That's actually quite easy, fireworks are just timed bombs: you only have to compensate the fuse length.
Say your rocket explodes 4 seconds after being ignited, just set it up to be ignited 4 seconds before the beat you want it to explode on. There are whole shows and even competitions of that.
@@MikeGoodrich They have a pyro team, so it's their job to count the fireworks to go off in sync with the song. Of course Tuomas as the main composer (the key.boardist) had to accept, and he likely directed the team. Don't know how the pyro guys do their rehearsals, do they just go with the igniters and music :)
"The Greatest Show on Earth" is in my humble opinion one of the most epic, emotional and important songs ever written. I've heard it dozens of times, and I still get a tear in my eye at that last Dawkins narration.
What ALWAYS gets me are those haunting "We were here!" choir lines.
Same! As a science geek, I love Nightwish even more for openly embracing it.
@@Debbie338 Greetings random person responding to my 2 year old comment. I still love Nightwish and I still think Floor is the best female rock singer on the planet, but I've since discovered a band that has pushed Nightwish back to my second favourite hard rock/metal band. If you like metal, especially the classic 80's Speed/Power/Thrash metal, then you should check out Lovebites, a Japanese, all female metal band. They sing in English, but the vocalist's enunciation is imperfect becuase she is not singing in her native language. Here's their most recent song if you are interested: ua-cam.com/video/m3uGjp-P7DI/v-deo.html&ab_channel=LOVEBITES
@tus the bit with the animal growls and monkey shrieks builds up to my favourite part (especially love when Floor sings about looking out for shiny rocks, giant mushroom clouds etc, simple lines but she puts some unexpected emotion into them)
I didn't realise that was Dawkins' voice. I've read his books but not heard him speak besides here - he coincidentally has the perfect voice to narrate that part for this song, wow!
The narrator is Prof. Richard Dawkins one of the world's leading evolutionary scientists.
They've used passages from his book The Greatest Show on Earth and he narrated it for the song on the album.
He also walked out on to the stage at Wembley and spoke it in person.
The band (especially Tuomas who wanted to be a biological scientist before he became a musical genius) were star struck with having him agree to come on stage with them to narrate in person.
And he was blown away (and terrified) because he's done lectures etc but never to 12500 screaming fans at a Rock concert.
So glad you watched it to the end, loads of reactors miss the pay off of the climax with them all thanking the crowd and hugging.
He missed the last part though: „... endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved!“
really? Fucking awesome! If any creationist liked Nightwish, they probably abandoned it after this lol
Wow, thanks for that...I just couldn't turn it off. For this type of song I need to stay in the energy and feeling of it or it's just too jarring to come out of it. I would imagine going to a concert of theirs would stay with you for days (and forever!) (-:
@@rogeriopenna9014 Not hardly bro. Dawkins is a complete moron and makes no sense if you listen to him. He cant even defend evolution as there is zero evidence for it. Nothing comes out of chaos. Something doesnt explode and become something better. If you throw down a glass in 10 billion yrs it isnt going to become a chandelier. Dawkins claims it would. Total fucking moron. Song is a Masterpiece none the less.
@@stephenallenbaugh54 Nice troll bro. Keep it up.
Nightwish is the best thing that happened to rock music in the 21st century. Tuomas is arguably the best composer of our era. I can go on and on about Floor and rest of the band. But you know it without me telling you. Another excellent reaction, sir.
Thank you so much! Indeed they are incredible!
Tuomas is a musical super genius. Metal Mozart indeed.
Thomas makes Scrooge McDuck Cool!!! Check out his tribute to Don La Rosa.
Absolutely, I wish more people were aware that they coexist with a super genius of music that is going to be remembered forever in history.
I love how people are concerned about the length of this song, but I dare most humans to prove they have something that enriches their lives more for 20 minutes than listening to this song and watching this performance.
„We were here...“ , together with the audience, has so much energie, i love it
I feel sorry for people that think they've seen great bands and seen great shows, but have never heard or seen Nightwish. Thanks for being so honest and knowledgable and so appreciative of this band. I'm an older metal head from the 80s(55 this year) who grew up on 70s radio, and played in bands until a few years ago, and this band blew my mind when I finally saw them live.
"We don't do this for technique, we do technique so we can do THIS" - Well said man! Keep up the good work!
We miss you Ann. Rest in Paradise.
To me the grand finale feels like an almost divine moment. A deep bow before evolution and the beauty of nature.
It is a divine moment if you feel it brother
So true...(-:
"I wish I had parting gifts for you .. " You did. For me, at least, watching the delight on your face as the music got into your soul was a joy to see!
OMG, this song always make me bawl my eyes out. Perfection.
Marco actually has been the lead singer of many musical projects over time :)
With the different styles Floor can sing, just ask her "which styles can you sing?", Floor's answer "Yes".
Most singers sing whatever they can...Floor sings whatever she wants :)
Well. I haven't heard her yodel yet :-)
She'll probably do that pretty well to.
While Floor sounds better in certain styles, she can most likely technically sing any style. I was going to say any style, but as previous commenter said, I have not heard her yodel yet either
I'd listen to her singing folk :)
@@soon_to_emerge I'd listen to Floor singing the phone book. Any phone book!
Not only Marko and Floor, the whole band is fantastic! Their lives are exceptional
I seriously can't listen to the "We were here" without sobbing
Yes, and every time they finish, I hear in my head: 'That's here. That's home. That's us.' (quote from Carl Sagan) and start to cry like a waterfall.
Oh thank GOD I'm not the only one. I'm watching this and voluntarily signing up to cry because this song just slaps me in the face with gratitude and hope.
Me too!!! I am so glad I'm not the only one.
Yeah, count me in on that one. It’s like the strangest mix of being totally uplifting and utterly heartbreaking at the same time. Extremely powerful with the images added into the mix.
The very special thing about Nightwish is that every band member is a genius in his/her field but they work together perfectly and step back as a person behind the music. You can see this clearly when a band member finished his/her part he/she often leaves the front of the stage and goes into the background. And you are right, Mike, everyone of them could be a star by himself/herself.
RIP Ann .. Know your knowledge will continue to be shared by the Army and we will never forget !!
A bloody loss. I never knew her, but after reading up a bit on her, I do feel sad.
People THAT passionate about what they love are a rare breed, and a dearly missed one.
SHE WAS HERE.
How did she pass?
I am 61 I am quite new to nightwish only about 2 years .I am a fan of the great bands pink Floyd and Queen and I think without a doubt nightwish stand with the greats .and this was a great reaction and I truly believe that Floor Jansen is one of the world's great singers so thank you Mike this is a brilliant performance of one of the best songs ever written I look forward to your next night wish reaction 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for your kind words!
I cant help but recommend you check out The Dear Hunter, because of the bands you like.
Check out Act V first (its a series of concept albums).
If you arent sold after the first Song of Act V I was wrong.
It's funny that you've mentioned Queen. The feeling I got with Floor is kinda the same that I feel when I listen to Freddie. I think that in a vocal standpoint she is the closest we got in this generation.
My uncle introduced me to Nightwish 3 days ago and I have been gorging for hours on end. So much "new" (to me) material to play. This band is immense, stupefying. Mike's reaction was one of the best I've looked at from music and voice coaches.
Love love love Floor!
I am 70:, a musician who plays guitar and drums also. I sure as heck remember the narration in Moody Blues. Great stuff. And over the years I’ve been fortunate to attend many excellent concerts, from numerous genres. Hearing NW live in 2O15 and 2018 are among the best of many . They are beyond description. No adequate words ! new subscriber, thanks for your thoughtful comments. (but as you have found out by now, you stopped the vid too soon ha )
Yes, I've been told! Haha It's nice to know because I really did not want to stop it. (-:
@@MikeGoodrich If your intuition tells you something - err on the side of intuition. ;)
@@MikeGoodrich I don't know whether you have already discovered this but Pip Williams who produced some of the Moody Blues work has been arranging the Orchestral music for Nightwish (Tuomas sometimes expects too much of the Orchestra). Nightwish use the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the London Metro Voices for their songs.
"...and just belting like there's no tomorrow." 😂 So true.
Great!
We're metal fans, we're used to very long songs. Enjoy your take on things. Great reaction.
Mainstream crap takes 3 minutes..... Masterpieces take time!
I can highly reccomend Blind Guardian - And then there was silence if you like the long ones ^^
Thanks so much! I used to love CREAM which did very ling jams! I love it too!
@Dregoth I love the doubleversion.. Bard Song plus Valhalla.. gets me everytime
Celebration of Life !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Just as you thought you've heard all she has.....you find out there's more."
Yep! That's the Floor (& Nightwish) experience, perfectly summed-up. :)
If you thought Marco was incredible here.. just wait until you experience their cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes.. you'll definitely love it!! Ok back to your reaction now.. loving it👌
I could not agree more!!!
I'll check it out and thank you for watching and commenting!!
@@MikeGoodrich You will not regret it! Even Dave Gilmour likes it!!
I watched an old roadie who toured with Pink Floyd react to it. As you might imagine, you could see his skepticism at first, and then his progressively more difficult inner battle not to say Marko’s version was as good or better than the original. (BTW, Marko’s is better, imo). 😊
R.I.P ANN..you tell this Reactor all about the Song,the Backkstory, the Band etc.The Nightwish family missed you so much 😓😞😓
Wait what?????
@@leh.pudueh ann waychoff died :( yesterday or the day before
@@AngelesBustamanteM Fking hell :( this is terrible RIP
I knew she had been ill. How sad to hear that she has passed.
I'm totally shocked even though I knew she hadn't been well!! There was nothing Ann didn't know about this band. She was always so helpful to new reactors and discoverers of NIghtwish and their army. RIP Ann, a sad day indeed
I admire the audience. They keep quiet and listen in the softer parts, they sing along when it's proper and no whistling or disturbing cat calls. They show respect and they love what they hear. Just as I do. And Floor... She is like a priestess leading her flock to salvation. She could make them do whatever she commands.
Mike - your reaction IS the gift! Our Ann would have been smiling with pride, eyes moist, as she watched you immerse yourself into it, your expert analysis of technique never getting in the way of your enjoyment. 👍😉
20:03. You caught the little Metallica riff ... 🤣. 21:00 I’m 60 years old, 6’1 and 270, and I cry Every time I get to this point.
It was Not too long. There is Never too much of this song.. The Nightwish Army would have eaten your soul had you stopped that any earlier than you did.... 😁😁
💙💙💙 All Hail Floor 💙💙💙
RIP Ann Waychoff. Commanding General-Nightwish Army 💙
Your age, height, and weight have nothing to do with your emotions and whether you display them or not.
@@chasingbirds3073 But, as it is still popular to say (tongue-in-cheek at least), grown boys (supposedly) don't cry. :)) So this was a correct play on societal cliches. Don't take things too seriously.
A bloody loss. I never knew her, but after reading up a bit on her, I do feel sad.
People THAT passionate about what they love are a rare breed, and a dearly missed one.
SHE WAS HERE.
Your reaction to synced fireworks and pyro is pure joy :)
Btw Marco his the lead singer of Tarot (where his brother also plays), and in January he released his solo album. He also sings in the supergroup Northern Kings with three other male singer. I would love to see your reaction to one of those!
Simply put, this is one of the most epic songs of Nightwish.
And no, you haven't lost me, in fact you stopped before the song was done :D But nevermind, most people don't realize that all this is still part of the song. There's a final monolugue at the very end which concludes our existence on earth.
This song is just so epic, every time I listen to it, it gives me goosebumps and I cry because it's just so beatiful. That's what music does to you (and me).
If you really want to feel sad, listen to "Our Decades in the Sun". I NEVER pass this song without crying. Never.
"Marco is killing me! This guy can be the lead singer of his own band!"
😆
For he IS (a lead singer in his own band) :)
He was the lead singer in Tarot
@@AdolfoSalinasP He IS the lead singer of Tarot(since 1982, way before he joined Nightwish in 2001 replacing Sami Vänskä), and just have come out with his solo album
Listen to Tarot: Pyre of Gods, Marco's bloody amazing: ua-cam.com/video/8htHbLHeS5k/v-deo.html
And band called Sapattivuosi, and Northern Kings co. vocalist.
Makes me so happy to hear that you give recognition to Marko's vocal skills! I'm not saying he doesn't get recognition, he does, but deserves more!
Good bye and Rest in Peace Ann. I will miss reading your comments. Sir Richard Dawson speaking and Marco has a band out6of Nightwish called Tarot he did with his older brother. He also has a solo album out last year in English. The growling was mostly Floor and some Marco. Marco had throat surgery so he can't do much of the growling. There was more speaking at the very end.
Same here, Christina. I still out of habit look for her in the comments. 😥
*Dawkins
What?? Ann died? I can't believe. And I was wondering why I don't see her in the comments recently.
@@amax1229 thank you
You haven’t lost any of us. I discovered Nightwish by accident like a lot of us. The only criticism I have is that you didn’t give the drummer or the amazing keyboard member any recognition that they so well deserved. I understand this is a overwhelming concert and their is a lot to take I in. My suggestion to you is to watch this a few more times so you can see and hear all the little nuances that each member contributes to the overall sound and visuals which makes this a MASTERPIECE...good reaction for first time listing to this amazing band...Judy D from NY State
It wasn't over the end was important.
Dear Mike, this is why the Nightwish Army loves Nightwish. The ability to overwhelm guys like you - well, trust me, we have all been there, and still are at every concert and new record. This is Nightwish in a nutshell - and - as you said - using the technology to underline the messages in their songs. But having said that, these 6 are unique. Tuomas are the modern Beethoven, Floor, Marco and Troy are completely insanely voice nerds, and Kai is a technical master on the drums - and Empphu's guitar handling are superb. And look at their chemistry - as Floor puts it: They are brothers in arms. They take the lead on shifts appreciating each other - the are the masters of live concerts, giving people experiences in more than just the ears.
This is Nightwish.
Great reaction from you - and you are by far, not the oldest. There are fans from 10 to 90, and a large portion of these are between 40 to 70.
'It's not about technique, we don't do this for technique, we do technique so we can do this'
Jerry Springer eat your heart out!
Mike, thank you for your enthousiasm. You seem like a realy nice and genuine person and i loved to watch this video for the 1.000.000th time...Your joy makes me relive the first time i ever heard this masterpiece 🖤❤️
You could check out their cover of High Hopes, or Phantom of the Opera (with Tarja) to get more Marko's singing.
🇫🇮😁🤘🤘❤️🎶🎸👍👍
Thank you for sharing This experiece with all of us 🤘🇫🇮
I'm at a different level of humanity and musical awareness because of my discovery of Nightwish. They are truly that impactful and important. Yeah, they are on a whole different level of performance. What a group of beautiful people.
To hear Marko, listen to The Islander from the same show or While your lips are still red live Wembley 2015
I will!! Thank you!!
I second both of those choices and if I may add the nightwish version of high hopes from Pink Floyd where Marco kills it m.ua-cam.com/video/4oEDnVeYYyM/v-deo.html
Heck yes! both are amazing, and really lets marco shine.
@@pdimi3829 Marko yess, but the whole band is shining in that one. That eerie, echoic sound Tuomas creates!
@@MikeGoodrich Marco also founded another band called Tarot, where he was the lead vocalist
You should watch Nightwish do "Ever Dream" at Wacken - amazing crescendo
The joy in which you watch these videos yes the same as I had only 3 months ago when I also discovered them.
Mike, I'm new to the channel. I just wanted to say that I love your respect for musical theatre. I'm not really a fan of musicals and pop-classical, but these guys are just amazing. Thank you for the video!
Niinpä,, same,,
No,, yuo are not,,
We are just part, off,,
Also impressive that this was the last song of a huge concert and their voices still sound that good! And I promise, you could have let this video run out with all the credits yet, and you would not have had a single dislike for it. There is actually more narration in that video that the Nightwish Army hates to miss.... ;-)
Thank you for that! It was very hard to turn off!
If you would be interested in exploring Marco so more, the performance of The Islander at the same Tampere show and Nightwish's cover of Pink Floyd's High Hopes at the End of an Era show are both great. As for Floor, to see the more theatrical side, I would suggest from the Buenos Aires 2018 show, Dead Boy's Poem & The Devil and The Deep Dark Ocean.
What comes to Marko, fantastic suggestions. I would propably add "Weak Fantasy", Tampere 2015, to the list, and several more but enough for now.
And "while your lips are still red" live at wembley
Tarot - Tides (live) would also deserve a spot here.
Came to the comments to recommend "The Islander" as well haha
I think Ghost River, Weak Fantasy and While Your Lips Are Still Red are the best songs that showcase his potential... I don't really dig tenors especially in metal but Marko's high notes feel so warm and powerful.
I'm sure, you will see Nightwish somewhere, someday....your face tells how much you want to see/meet them! You keep on waiting...👍
Marco IS the leader of his own bands. Two actually : Tarot, and is solo project Marko Hietala. check out his songs Stones or The Voice Of My Father
Thanks!!
@@MikeGoodrich hello sir...i'm subscriber from Malaysia...can you reacts to Malaysian nombor one singer SITI NURHALIZA - BADARSILA ON TOUR 2019
ua-cam.com/video/VVoRIED3MCU/v-deo.html
@@MikeGoodrich hopefully you can do reaction the video..thank you so much..
The voice of my father is my favourite of the solo album. So good!
Also Northern Kings
You paused too quick, Richard Dawkins still had one more thing to say, play it until the absolute end :) We NW fans like long videos man! Beautiful.
Thank you for that!!
@@MikeGoodrich The part you missed is a quote from Charles Darwin:
"There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers
Having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one
And that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on
According to the fixed law of gravity
From so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful
And most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved"
Dear Mike, Nightwish reactions are never too long! Plus your technical review is awesome, even for me as a non-singer. So take your time reviewing, it separates you from all the other "vocal coaches". We'll, you had the big three of NW, so or you will do the shorter NW songs, or you will take up Floors appearances on the Dutch TV show the Beste zangers, where she shows her versatility in all genres of singing. Waiting for Friday and Wednesday, regards!
There's a proverb in Finland: "It's a lottery win to be born in Finland", which references to our social security and health care system. In this song, with Professor Dawkins' quote, it is made it more impactful by saying that it's a lottery win to be born (in general).
I will say it a billion times. I am listening to the Greatest Band On Earth.
I had a good talk with Ann on UA-cam once. 💕 And Floor Jansen is the Queen of The Mix, She is smiling while singing. And Marko Hieltala ? Try his song "Stones"
11:22 Well he actually is :-) Band is called "Tarot", he also released a solo early this year "Pyre of the black heart" 19:08 Also there is still more to Floor, just saying ;-)
@TwoCats Yelling same for me :)
Ops, I replied before reading your comment 😬
What bands has Marko played in? Well, what bands has Marko NOT played in?
Then there is the band "All Hietala Power Trio". Marko, bass and vocals, Marko's brother Zachary (Sakari officially), guitar, and Miro, 18, Markos son, drums. The future is quaranteed! They played Black Sabbath covers a couple of weeks ago on a live stream from Kuopio Finland, their home town, for 30 minutes, two nights in a row.
Both streams available now on YT. Check them out. Same set list on both nights. In the later one Marko forgets the lyrics, (War Pigs was the song i believe, the last song), and reacts to that in Finnish: "Perkele!" In Buenos Aires 2018, Kingslayer was the song I think, his reaction in a similar situation was: "Fuck me!" That's Marko! LOL
Marko breathes music... he did a lot of guest appearences for other bands and did vocals for other project as well... he's a legend.
i absolutely adore his honesty
This band... this song... speaks for all mankind! For all of us! We were here :) And this is our musically legacy...
I like you dude, you seem like a genuine dude! :) Can recommend "The Islander", it's a great one!
Instant like then watch video!
Lol me to
hahahaha same here
When you say you wish you could give us a gift - The gift is seeing you react to this music.
For me, the closing speech together with "we were here" is so powerful. It creates such an appreciation for where we are and combined with being present at such a show must be overwhelming. I was going to their concert coming November but with the current goings-on, I don't think that's going to happen any time soon, unfortunately.
Great reaction. Love youre comments. Song of myself next time ptease.
Great reaction again. Thank's! A bit worried though that you'll have a Nightwish-stroke 🤯
I long for your reaction to "Shoemaker" and.. well the entire new album. But I'll be murder-killed by the Nightwish army (😇) if I don't ask you to do a few of the older stuff first. Whatever you decide I'll watch it.
There's no such thing as a too long Nightwish reaction)) there some analysises of Nightwish songs on UA-cam more than an hour long)) you will not get a Nightwisher who will complain about you not stopping Nightwish song sooner)) always watch till the very end and you can't get wrong with it) believe me!! Thank you for your reaction!
This is not only a song , its drama , and live! And its Fantastic! Who can do better music? Nobody!
I would love to see you react to Henk Poort and Sound of Silence.
You mentioned the Moody Blues Days of Future Passed, and you are absolutely right there, but what it also reminds me of is another Moody Blues song... "Procession" off of the Every Good Boy Deserves Favour album.
As for the "We were here" section towards the end.... IT DOES GET BETTER! If you are in the crowd when you are hearing that, EVERYONE is screaming those words as loud as they can. It is somewhat spiritual just how intense that section of this song becomes when you are in the audience.
Yep! That's how it would get better!! (-:
I'm 54 years old, and you are talking about music that I know well. Thanks
I just love your comments
"and both of 'em are spinning like tops with their vibrato" such a cool expression right there🙌 and then that ad 🤣 epic reaction Mike *Kiitos!*
Thank you so much!! That ad really threw me...haha!
You definitely need to see The Islander live from Tampere and their cover of Pink Floyds High hopes for more of Marko Hietala.
R.I.P Ann.
I had watch almost all reaction videos to all Nightwish songs, but this one makes almost each voice teacher have tears in the eyes.
The gift is you giving us Nightwish, my favorite Nightwish song is always the last one I listened to. Each Nightwish song/set is its own Journey into the realm of Tuomas visions and composition, that’s why the Nightwish army is so passionate, you’ve joined the Nightwish army and one thing you learn as you explore this band is 1-never apologized for the video being to long, the army marches with complete acceptance that no matter how long the quest is we savor every minute of it.2- we know you have to pause you do it well and don’t talk over the music( haven’t heard you do that) gasps, yells, and look of amazement, contentment excitement never get old! Good luck exploring this incredible and amazing band, welcome to the Nightwish Army!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
great to see a reaction from someone who actually has some musical knowledge..loved the video..and the man narating in the song is a scientist prof. Richard Dawkins..they colaborated with him on the album and the title of the song is actually taken from the title of one of his books "The Greatest Show On Earth"
The man who does the narration is no one other than sir Richard Dawkins himself!
So awesome, thank you!
He’s not a “sir” though. Controversial figures don’t get Knighted unfortunately … He should definitely be a “sir” in my opinion, but he’s not.
@@aeldin131 He is a Sir in my eyes, even though I dont agree with his religious stance. He is a Sir, because he makes me think critically why Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I have no problem saying this, because I have a deep passion for science as well.
@@orion351us Respect
@@jeroens9160 ummmm, thank you. I didn't expect that response.
I LOVE your enthusiasm!
If I told you that Floor was growling like a demoness the second song on this concert, would you believe me?
What I love about Nightwish is that they don't just deliver a concert, they deliver an experience, a whole emotional rollercoaster. After the concert you are so filled with emotions!
BTW, Marco has his own solo projects :)
I really think that part that you mean the animalistic cavemen chant is actually done by Troy, he came back on stage right at the exact time and he has done it life in other concerts. Not that Floor couldn't have done it, but Nightwish more and more used Troy to give the other band members more space to recuperate.
@@wudruffwildcard252 I think he means that Floor growls in "Yours is an Empty Hope", the second song of this concert. And it was Floor doing the caveman grunt, not Troy or Marko.
10:43 Floor Marco and Troy Donockley (the guy with the irish elbow pipes) are always singing that part together
why does everyone miss that there is a third voice i heard it the first time through
it might be subtle but it is clearly there and harmonizes perfectly with them which is amazing in itself
please listen to it again for your analysis video that i bet you will do about this song
I seriously like your reactions!! And I do like that you like Marko singing!! To see more of him "Islander" @ Tampere and "While your lips are still red" are great picks :)
Marco goes even more crazy with his vocals in The Phantom of the Opera (Nightwish) with Tarja in the End of an Era concert!
You are so humble. You are one of the NW family.
Such a joy to observe yours, a real pleasure to absorb what you have to say. You are the best! And yes, this 71 year old remembers the Moody Blues quite well-nice pickup! Your reactions to Ghost love Score, Poet and Pendulum, and Greatest Show on Earth have been a real pleasure to experience. Bravo!
you need to watch The Islander live a Tampere to see what Marco can do
I will!! Thanks!
Yes, Marko is a lead singer in his own right. The whole band is amazingly talented! Great reaction/ analysis.
My man is so genuine with his reaction to this. He’s actually stunned, which is what nightwish does so well 😅
I love watching peoples reactions to this
Awesome reaction. Love the whole band but Floor and Marko are something special. If you want to see what goes on in his head a bit Floor just started her "Floor Finds" series on her YT channel and her first guest is Marko. Extremely intelligent individual (and funny).
I watched that. It's obvious that they are fond of each other, and missing being together. I hope they all get the chance to be together soon. They may do a lot of solo projects on their off time, but I think they really love their time together in the band.
You can hear a bit of Marko in Ever Dream (live at Wacken) chorus
I personally have a suspicion that Tuomas has a key on his keyboard that is labelled ‘BANG’, and another that just says ‘FIRE’
You really need to check out Floor doing Phantom of the Opera with Henk Poort on the Dutch TV show Beste Zangers. Henk played Eric in the Dutch version years ago. Andrew Lloyd Weber has said that he was his favorite Eric.

Someone will say this before me, but I love the notion behind it: most singers sing what they can, Floor sings what she wants.
Marco has a solo album that is awesome. He is the lead singer for that group and does an amazing job of it.
Just find this reaction, you are now my favorit reactor, diving now into your deep deep talented rabbithole, thanks💕🇸🇪🤘😎🤟
Irish uilleann pipes have got to be one of the most beautiful sounds ever created, such an earthy sound that just drowns itself and the listener in the world of the fearie folk that lives hand in hand with the

The Greatest Song On Earth in the "Greatest Show On Earth" from "The Greatest Band On Earth"
For more Marco, listen to "The Islander" Live at Tampere (same concert as the above video) and "While Your Lips Are Still Red" Live at Wembley! Both are amazing!
This is nothing less than a soundtrack for humanity. They were ambitious and succeeded on a grand scale.
